Rebecca Ferguson heads to secret X Factor gig with price tags still on her shoes and dress

Let's hope that Rebecca Ferguson remembered to take the price tags off her outfit before she hit the stage.

The X Factor hopeful was pictured tonight arriving to perform at a secret gig with her dress and Jimmy Choo shoes in hand, ready to make a dazzling onstage appearance.

But on closer inspection it was clear to see that the 24-year-old contestant had left tags on both items.

Whoops: But there were price tags still on her sparkly black dress she was holding and already-worn Jimmy Choo shoes

One was stuck to the bottom of her already-worn silver peep-toe
heels, while her sparkling black dress also had a price label
still hanging off it.

The mother-of-two was mobbed by fans as she arrived at a secret London venue for tonight's gig put on by TalkTalk, the sponsor of this year's show.

Semi-finalist Rebecca was joined by the other remaining acts from the
show - Cher Lloyd, Matt Cardle, One Direction and Mary Byrne.

Mobbed: Rebecca was mobbed by fans as she made her arrival

Despite her smiles for the cameras, Rebecca is said to have told show producers she fears the show is being
geared up for Cher Lloyd to win.

The pressure of the ITV
talent show had clearly taken its toll on Rebecca after she
gave a rather subdued performance on Saturday that prompted Simon Cowell
to say he could ‘see the nerves'.

Miss Ferguson was then pictured weeping as she left the studios
in Wembley, North London, and was comforted by ousted Katie Waissel.

Star quality: Cher wows the crowd with her performance at the intimate gig

A show source told the Daily Mail: ‘Rebecca was in absolute tears backstage, I’ve never seen a contestant so upset before.

‘She really feels that Cher is getting preferential treatment over her and that this is going to ruin her chances of winning.

‘Rebecca’s
put everything into this competition and she’s finding it extremely
stressful. It’s very hard for her to see Cher get so much attention from
their mentor Cheryl. She thinks the show is being geared up for Cher.

‘And
besides which, Rebecca was very close to Katie and now that she has
gone, she only has Cher left, and she can be very hard and cold.’
